Considering her long history of scandals  and the litany of subsequent excuses and denials she sent spinning to absolve herself of any fault -- Examiner predicted Thursday that Benghazi could prove to be a real "corkscrew landing" under "sniper fire" for Clinton in 2016.

In case you have any lingering doubt about the true agenda of House Republicans in Wednesday's Benghazi hearing, check out these numbers, Jed Lewison fretted Thursday for the uber-liberal blog site, Daily Kos.

15: Number of times President Barack Obama was mentioned during the hearing 71: Number of times fmr. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton was mentioned

Evidently, Lewison cant imagine why Clinton  the fmr. secretary of state, whose duty it was to protect the lives of Chris Stevens, Sean Smith and ex-Navy SEALs Tyrone Woods and Glen Doherty who were killed under her watch  would be mentioned so many times during a hearing aimed at finding out who was responsible for the decisions that ultimately led to their deaths.

The testimony of the Benghazi survivors -- the self-described "whistle-blowers," who have dared to step forward and tell their stories, despite the threats from those who stand to lose the most -- has pretty much decimated the story that President Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton (with the assistance of the essentially useless Press Secretary Jay Carney and the embarrassingly naive U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Susan Rice) pushed to cover their own asses.

A little side-note on those Benghazi survivors:

Were it not for the heroic efforts of those ex-Navy SEALs -- Tyrone Woods and Glen Doherty -- who disobeyed the orders to "stand down"... TWICE... and lead a rescue team from their location (a mile away)to the Benghazi compound after they heard shots being fired -- those "whistle-blowers" might not be have been alive to testify on Wednesday.

Makes the possible explanation as to why they were told to "stand down" -- and why subsequent rescue personnel were told "not to go" -- come into ugly perspective -- doesn't it?

Even more entertaining (or "pathetic"... I can't quite decide yet) is the amount of frantic effort the liberal MSM and their blogger minions are expelling to deny and beat back the obvious -- that Hillary is toast in 2016.

Sure... there might be enough of what Rush Limbaugh describes as "low information voters" to elect her as the Democratic nominee for 2016. But, as South Carolina Republican Rep.Sen. Lindsey Graham posed(rhetorically) to National Review on Thursday:

"How in the world could she have believed that the death of Chris Stevens was a spontaneous riot motivated by a hateful video?

"Either she is completely disconnected from reality or that was political spin."

"Ultimately, the voters will decide, Graham conceded, but if youre running to be commander in chief, people are going to judge you by the job youve done.

And, as I noted in my article -- Hillary's scandal record is LONG.

In his equally frantic screed -- "GOPs trumped-up Benghazi scandal hasnt tarnished Hillary Clinton" -- Pat Cunningham parroted Lewison's silly lament, "that Clintons name was mentioned almost five times as often as President Obamas in Wednesdays House Oversight Committee hearing on Benghazi."

"The objective of the GOP scandal-mongers was clear: Bring Hillary down a peg or two or five."

Whatever.

"Evidently," he "cant imagine why Clinton  the fmr. secretary of state, whose duty it was to protect the lives of Chris Stevens, Sean Smith and ex-Navy SEALs Tyrone Woods and Glen Doherty who were killed under her watch  would be mentioned so many times during a hearing aimed at finding out who was responsible for the decisions that ultimately led to their deaths" either.

He's "betting that the next batch of polls measuring Clintons popularity will show that she remains far more well-liked among the American people than any Republican politician in the land."

Yeah... and I'm betting that "should Clinton decide to make a run at the presidency in 2016, she better start figuring out how shes going to make a corkscrew landing through her past and start practicing how to duck the sniper fire that is sure to ensue as she runs across the campaign tarmac."

If I were a high-stakes Democrat player in the second tier for the 2016 election...I’d start to put my team together and anticipate that she’s toast at this point. Imagine walking into Iowa and folks there asking stupid questions about the ambassador or Libya. Up until the event....she was guaranteed the 2016 election and would have been tough to beat. I’d say now....she’d best prepare to sit down and just write books and pretend it’s over.

"Evidently," he "cant imagine why Clinton  the fmr. secretary of state, whose duty it was to protect the lives of Chris Stevens, Sean Smith and ex-Navy SEALs Tyrone Woods and Glen Doherty who were killed under her watch  would be mentioned so many times during a hearing aimed at finding out who was responsible for the decisions that ultimately led to their deaths" either.

Yeah Hilliary over Jarrett...er that is Obama...5 to 1, he's gotta be lovin' this!

In case Francis Wilkinson didn't know NOTHING happened with Whitewater. Records were lost, then found in plain sight, some big slobbering fool friend got in some trouble and another "friend" killed himself then drove to a park to die in the bushes.

( We bet on the black, it came up red.)

The commie toads in the state-controlled “media” sure are scared and upset right now. They’re scared to death that Slick Willie’s wife won’t be the next “president”. Gonna be a lot of bedwetting going on this weekend in Liberalville.

If I were a high-stakes Democrat player in the second tier for the 2016 election.......Do you mean Biden?LOL

Remember how far Hillary was trying to get away from the media and Obama last summer and fall? She was going to strange and exotic places for weeks on end. Benghazi brought her out which we will be eventually thankful for. Then, when she made her ‘bold’ comments to the committee, she stuck both hands in the tar. I really hope the right leaders are stepping up to pen these traitors (Obama and Hillary) in. THey should include some of our own too like McCain. I am not saying he is traitor, just an enabler.

In case you have any lingering doubt about the true agenda of House Republicans in Wednesday's Benghazi hearing, check out these numbers, Jed Lewison fretted Thursday for the uber-liberal blog site, Daily Kos.

Are not many people getting tired of these distractions? Most people just want to get to the truth without changing the subject.

Daily Kos just learn how to report like the UK Guardian. The accusations and motives can come later. It is really annoying to see just hysterical, off subject reporting. The left wing conspiracy is huge and all directed to changing the subject, any subject except Benghazi where four Americans were killed.

The Daily Kos reports like no one was killed, just a few white guys, and it is time to support the Democrats version of what happened.

If the opposition does not play the what does it matter clip 24/7, they deserve to loose.

In what formerly was America Hildebeast's irritating, near-hysterical, and insensitive outburst ("What difference...does it make...")would be an fatal impediment to her being elected POTUS. But in the America of 2016 the typical Demorat voter will only be concerned with "what's in it for me" if I vote for Clinton. So something which, by conventional wisdom, should be a potent weapon, is rendered irrelevant. Just my opinion.

Were it not for the heroic efforts of those ex-Navy SEALs -- Tyrone Woods and Glen Doherty -- who disobeyed the orders to "stand down"... TWICE... and lead a rescue team from their location (a mile away)to the Benghazi compound after they heard shots being fired -- those "whistle-blowers" might not be have been alive to testify on Wednesday.

Makes the possible explanation as to why they were told to "stand down" -- and why subsequent rescue personnel were told "not to go" -- come into ugly perspective -- doesn't it?

WAY worse than any screwed up Arkansas land deal. I guess though I cannot say for certain that no one died because of Whitewater (just check Alamo Girls list), but we know there were deaths at Benghazi and Hillary was there to get a photo op with the US flag draped coffins.

(A Liberal is a person who will give away everything he doesn't own.)

Funny, yesterday John F in Kerry, who still sees himself as electable, said something on the Benghazi matter. It was moot on Hitlery.

The dems have put all their chips on Hitlery so perhaps his lack of support for her was just “testing” the waters so to speak. I believe we will not be able to land an impeachment glove on his excellency but if this matter takes Hitlery out of the running, GREAT.

One other interesting thing yesterday, Lybia is heating up, demonstrations are causing some concern the his excellency was quick to put out we have military units on alert and the state department is withdrawing some personnel.

How this hag, this disreputable evil poor excuse for a woman, could feel that America is her oyster should cause Americans with functioning brains to sit up and take notice.

For four years this fathead has pranced about the world trying to act like a secretary of state when the net result was many Americans waking up to the realization as to what she truly is: a smarmy, lying bitch who crawled through the nation’s sewer system from Little Rock to Washington to New Yarkansas, then back to Washington again.

The ‘seat of power’ is in the ample seat of her trusty, crusty pants suits. She is truly America’s most despicable money-grubbing butt-ugly asswipe.

(Liberals are like Slinkies, good for nothing, but you smile as you push them down the stairs.)

Yes, and all those loyal foot soldiers today on the front line of the Democratic Party have the same attitude as did Web Hubbell back in the 1990’s. In other words, they’re ready “to roll over for Hillary, one more time.”

The Democratic Party is their religion. The underlings will die if necessary to protect their masters. Obama and Hillary will skate. Get ready for President Clinton in 2016.
